I thought I would make it "Read an Actual Book Night" tonight. Usually I download and read on my iPad, but I really miss real paper print. AND I really miss Bukowski - he's so crude and savage at times, and yet very poignant at others.

Besides, “We need to make books sexy again. If you go home with someone and they don’t have books, don’t fuck them.” - John Waters

I love how you can see the coarse fabric of the couch, and yet there is this warm wash of rich natural browns, reds, and flesh tones all blended in to make someone snugly and very feminine want to cuddle up and read with me. Or maybe I'll read aloud just for you, but just the fuck parts - they're underlined in cheap bic pen already.

I always thought that Buckowski was more of a 'guys writer', you know, being that he's an alcoholic womanizing asshole and all. Is that the attraction? that he's a bit of a bad boy? or that he writes from a raw nerve?

I'm rather fond of his misanthropic characteristics and how raw his writing is. I'll admit I haven't read his novels, just his poetry. But I guess to be fair I have also had my share of alcoholic, womanizing bad boys
Google his poem "Yes Yes". It's probably one of my favourites.

Yes Yes

when God created love he didn't help most
when God created dogs He didn't help dogs
when God created plants that was average
when God created hate we had a standard utility
when God created me He created me
when God created the monkey He was asleep
when He created the giraffe He was drunk
when He created narcotics He was high
and when He created suicide He was low

when He created you lying in bed
He knew what He was doing
He was drunk and He was high
and He created the mountians and the sea and fire at the same time

He made some mistakes
but when He created you lying in bed
He came all over His Blessed Universe.

LOL. I hadn't read that one of his.

I've read many of his novels, and they seem to be very autobiographical. I love how gritty and perverted he can be, but I'm still glad that I'm not him - I don't think I would have put up with him as a friend. LOL I think that as far a ladies men go, I'd prefer to be Leonard Cohen.

A Bukowski fan too. Be still my heart. Hah. All the fuck parts, huh? If he's reading Bukowski, I think it'd make me want to do more than just cuddle and read.
